News Roundup, Week of July 28

Signed books available in mid-August

Last Monday, I placed an order for 100 copies of A Rope for Judas. I was told they would arrive by August 13. That means those who supported me financially through my GoFundMe campaign will be receiving their signed copies (and any other perks they may have coming to them) no later than August 20.

Photo Shoot

Also on Monday, I traveled to Sunbury, OH, for a photo shoot with Kathy Green Photography. A couple of years ago, Kathy took the best photographs of me that I have ever seen, so when it came time to take the author photo for my press kit and for my GoFundMe supporters, I knew exactly who to call.

I was not disappointed. Considering what she had to work with (i.e., my face), Kathy did another remarkable job as you can see. My task now is to pick out a few different shots and get prints made.

Thanks again, Kathy!


Presentation Copies Arrived

Monday was a busy day. When I got home from the photo shoot, Sarah, Rosie, and I took a walk to the mailbox, and what do you suppose I found there? Two copies of A Rope for Judas! Called presentation copies, these books are mine to keep, and I’ve been showing them off to people all week. I’m going to continue to do that right now. Here’s the video Sarah made of me opening my package:
